"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Is cooking dinner for her AFCish or not. To me it seems like it is but idk.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I just moved into my new place and was considering inviting one of my girls over for dinner, but I was thinking more along the lines of the two of us cooking together. I think it could be a fun experience. You might consider doing this sometime.

Have men been the cooks for the last two thousand years? No.

Have men been wusses for the last two thousand years? No.

Notice that when men begin to take up cooking (role reversal), men also turn into wusses (role reversal). (This is not to say cooking makes you a wuss).

To quote Anti Dump: "Real men are not available. They're out there climbing mountains, swimming across rivers. What are you doing? Making spagetthi?"

Depends on your motives for cooking and from what position your coming from (man or metrosexual). If you're cooking to impress, forget it, that's AFC, seeking validation. If you're doing it because it's an anniversay, special day, or she is sick or tired then it would be a romantic gesture, no problem.

If you want her to come to your place, I recommend cooking together (like MrPimpin said), you can have a mini food fight, help out, set the table, kino, who knows, maybe dinner will end up on the floor ;)

You should only cook dinner for your girl if:
a. it's your one year anniversary...or two year
b. she's very sick/she just made a huge accomplishment (college graduation, etc)/a close family member died and she's in mourning.

Cooking for her "just because" is AFCish.

Cooking something together, however, never goes out of style.

Cook something with her, I've never failed with this. It sort of works as an action date and it's probably something she's not done often, if at all.

negatory

cooking is totally okay.

cooking "just because" is fine.

cooking to seek approval is not okay.
and
not cooking to seek approval is not okay.

what if you're a good cook? are you going to NOT cook for her because you want to look like a "DJ"? NO!

TRYING NOT to be an AFC does NOT make you a DJ.
but
DOING what YOU love to do without being bothered about other people's opinions DOES make you a DJ

write that down.

If you like to cook, then cook. If you suck at cooking, then don't cook.

oh yeah and about the picture, it's a lil cloudy in my memory, but change it back the smoking hot one.
